This year has been a frustrating one. After an absolutely dreadful start in April, the Yankees have since played a dance with .500; they go on a tear and seem to break through, only to topple back below it. There is no discernible "star" either, and that takes away from the experience. Contrast that with, say, the Mets or Cubs or Dodgers, for example, whose fans tune in with baited breath to watch Noah Syndergaard, Jake Arrieta, or Clayton Kershaw.
The one bright spot, though, is the back-end of the bullpen.
